Chai Eggnog

Chai Eggnog

With this spiced and creamy Chai Eggnog, your kitchen transforms into a holiday retreat filled with warm aromas and cheerful flavors.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4–6 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15-ounce) can coconut milk
  • 2 cups almond milk
  • 5 egg yolks
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 chai tea bags
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: bourbon, rum, or brandy

Instructions

  1. Mix the Base: In a large saucepan, combine coconut milk, almond milk, egg yolks, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk vigorously for one minute until smooth and frothy.
  2. Heat the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally as the liquid warms. Watch carefully for tiny bubbles at the edges. Do not let it boil.
  3. Simmer with Chai: Lower heat to medium-low. Add the chai tea bags and simmer gently for three minutes, stirring to prevent sticking. Remove and discard the tea bags.
  4. Add Vanilla: Stir in vanilla extract until well combined. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness with more maple syrup if needed.
  5. Optional Spirits: For a spiked version, add 1.5 ounces of bourbon, rum, or brandy per cup of Chai Eggnog.
  6. Chill and Serve: Pour the eggnog into a heat-safe container. Refrigerate for up to three days. Serve chilled in mugs or glasses.
